[DMANET] LSE PhD studentships in Algorithms and Optimisation

LSE PhD studentships in Algorithms and Optimisation

The Operations Research group in the Department of Mathematics at LSE is
seeking exceptionally talented and motivated students with a strong
mathematical background and interest in topics in algorithms and
optimisation, including: algorithmic game theory; algorithms and theory
of linear, convex and integer programming; approximation algorithms;
algorithms beyond the worst-case; combinatorial optimisation; matroid
theory; multiagent learning; network design and optimisation; and random
structures and phase transitions. For more specifics, please consult the
personal pages of the faculty:
https://www.lse.ac.uk/Mathematics/Research/Operations-Research.

Applicants whose application is complete (including receipt of
references) by the first deadline (*15 January 2025*) will be considered
for fully funded PhD studentships. These studentships cover fees and pay
an annual stipend (which for 2024 entry was £21,237), usually tax free.
The award of these studentships is competitive, based on academic
performance.
